  • Quake 3 final demo and Windows 2000 pro, lockups

    Ok I have a K6-2 450 128 sdram and G400 32 meg. Because of a yet unfixable problem with Win2k I cannot change my apeture in the bios above 4 megs (which is limiting me to agp 1x only, the problem exists with my FIC pa-2013 rev 2.0 and rev 2.1 also) I installed the q3 final demo and have the 5.03 matrox drivers installed, i setup my character and tried to run a timedemo, hard locked at loadup screen. after reboot tried just running a game single player, hard lock at game screen when it says i have entered the arena. My g400 is on IRQ9 and not sharing anything. Any ideas?

    Jedi, you probably heard this before, but if you really dig win2k (I do and use it all the time over win98) you really need to upgrade. Win2k has major problems dealing with mvp3 chipsets. Face it.
    I am getting a new scanner (maybe a cheap mustek 1200 usb, they have win2k drivers) just to have all my hardware functional under win2k (at least it´s a good excuse to upgrade 3 year old hardware ).

      Hi Jedi,

      First of all, I agree with Nuno.

      Second I had probs with the demo, but when I got the final release of Q3A, it ran like a charm under win2k.
